Summary "American Lutheranism Vindicated; or, Examination of the Lutheran Symbols" by S. S. Schmucker is a theological treatise written in the mid-19th century. The work addresses various disputed topics within Lutheran doctrine, particularly in response to a pamphlet by Rev. W. J. Mann that questions certain interpretations of the Augsburg Confession. Schmucker seeks to provide clarity and a defense of New School Lutheranism by examining historic Lutheran symbols and affirming a view that emphasizes the importance of scriptural authority over traditional creeds. The opening of the text introduces the context of religious controversy surrounding the interpretation of foundational Lutheran documents. Schmucker outlines the central aim of his treatise: to respond to Mann's claims about the inaccuracies in the interpretations of the Augsburg Confession and other Lutheran symbols. He communicates the necessity of discussing these doctrinal disagreements as essential to advancing understanding and unity within the church. Schmucker further emphasizes the importance of scrutinizing human creeds against the backdrop of Scripture, advocating for a position that seeks to reconcile tradition with continued theological reflection amidst evolving interpretations of faith.
